For The Sake of Peace Lyrics

For the sake of peace, I kept quiet

For the sake of peace, I denied it

I knew it would hurt you, so I tried to hide it

For the sake of peace, I withered in silence

Brought into this world so trusting

Maybe that was my first mistake

If I knew of the evils of this world

I could have stopped it before it was too late

For the sake of peace, I kept quiet

For the sake of peace, I denied it

I knew it would hurt you, so I tried to hide it

For the sake of peace, I withered in silence

So he took my innocence

And left me with nothing but pain

And I tried to tell you

All you could say was

For the sake of peace, I should keep quiet

For the sake of peace, I should deny it

You knew it would hurt me, but you told me to hide it

So for the sake of peace, I withered in silence

Yes, he took my innocence

But he will not take the rest of my life

Yes, he took my innocence

But he will not take the rest of my life

For the sake of peace, I will not keep quiet

For the sake of peace, I will not deny it

Even if it hurts me, I will not hide

For the sake of peace, I will break the silence
